As a work-around could you alter your sig so it doesn't include a table?

Simply use something like:
<PRE>Lane
-- 

<FONT COLOR="#0000f8">Lane P. Lester / Madison County, Georgia</FONT>

<FONT COLOR="#008000">Running Linux more and Windows less</FONT>
</PRE>

I don't see the point in using a table...
Also IIRC a sig should start with '-- ' (including the space at the end)
followed by a newline...

Perhaps your sig isn't recognised as such by evo because the '-- ' is
preceded with a font tag?  Somebody with more knowledge about this will
have to tell us whether or not this is important...


Also your sig contained several empty lines in the table, I don't know
how those got there but I doubt Evo added those?

Perhaps you can try to use a bash-script to generate your sig? In your
case this is a bit overkill but something like this should work:
#!/bin/bash

echo 'Lane'
echo '<PRE>-- '
echo '<FONT COLOR="#0000f8">Lane P. Lester / Madison County,
Georgia</FONT>'
echo ''
echo '<FONT COLOR="#008000">Running Linux more and Windows less</FONT>'
echo '</PRE>'

Save it in a text-editor and use Evo's sig-handler to run it.
